TYOMAVS COMMiTTEi; UKTOilT i ON LIBKHTY LOAN DKlVK.j I An Interesting Summing l}> oi tliej Excellent Work Bone l>y Noble. Patriotic Women. The final report of the third Liberty .loan has been sent to the state r*!iair4 I man and I shall take this opportuni-; ty to make a report to Xe wherry I county through the pages of its most j generous papers. 1 wisn tnat 1 couia j thank' each worker on the woman's j committee personally for the services I rendered her county in the call fori Liberty bond subscribers. You have; done a no.ble bit by your country m i sacrificing your time which I know j is precious in the^ome in these days j of getting ready for school closings, j etc. But the end is not yet! 'So don't | iCCi liiat LUV. lUiiu V^. loan has come to such a successful closing that you are disorganized and it is now some other woman's job to I # "keep the '"ball rolling." Not so. it be. j hooves every woman to stay on the j job assigned her, keep in readiness ! for the new drives to come and when j they do ome. push them to a finish as j you did the third Liberty loan. Following is the report that has i b^en received from the township j chairman woman's committee, New- j berry county: Township Xo. 1?Mrs. TV. H. Hunt, j chairman, $202,250. Township No. 2?Miss Ola Brown, j chairman, $850. Township 'Xo. 3?Mrs. J. W. ald- | well, chairman, $1,800. ^ Township Xo. 4?&Irs. J. B. Pitts, j chairman, $39,200. Township Xo. o?Mrs. O. A.

Tie total amount secured was $290,400, there 'being 914 subscribers. Wo wic.Vi DYnrPse rmr 5inr?rPf>ia- I tion to The Herald and News and The j Observer for space so willingly granted us prior to and during the Liberty loan campaign. We wish to express our deep gratitude to the 914 subscribers who made it possible for the j woman's committee to land such a ; fine loan. And the banks! They were ; "tried and true*' to us in furnishing i nflf>osc!irr information for our final I report and in giving assistance to our! 1 committees whenever and wherever j they could. v Previous to the opening of the cam-; paign your chairman attended ,the I state conference in Columbia. In giving her -plans to the conference she emphasized the fact that the womanhood of Newherry county is waking j up to. the call for service. Her rei port ended with this appeal: "America needs women to match j her mountains, I i America' needs women to match her: plains. Women with victory in their purposes j And Liberty loan in their brains." j Since the third Liberty loan has j closed she stands ready to herald to j the world that, Kewberry county has women fo match j her mountains, r Newberry county has women to match j her plains, I "Women with victory in their pupose: And Liberty loan in their brains. Secretary McAdoo said that the wo-' ! men have put their souls and their in- j fluence in this work and are making j the men go forward, because there is j no greater moving impulse on eartn j than women. He says, "I am 'proud , to he in full and equal partnership j rrrATY?An /\P A TV* Qri oo in t Vl 1 ^ VT1CII tile n VI mugi Xta VXAAO I great task. Men and women are equal partners in this great enterprise of civilization and liberty imperiled now by the. German hordes." . I feel that this report will not have ended until I shall have quoted what Edwin W. Robertson, Mrs. F. S. Mun-' sell, W. G. McAdoo, and Mrs. W. G. McAdoo have written me. j Mr. Robertson, state chairman, is j interested in securing data for the ' historical records. He writes: "In preparing a list of the sub-: *cribers to the last Liberty loan for , permanent record, T wish al?o to have 1 added a complete list of the organisation and am asking if you will not! >::ndlv furnish me with the names, and positions occupied by the various ladies who cooperated with yourself? the county committees and the town committees. T would like to see the rumril fnmnlpfp anrl iifPiiMto ni i possible, as I believe that in this ! way, we will be making history for j our state." Mrs. Munsell, state -chairman for I-I".?? riy loan coin mitt* says: "I feel that Xewberrv deserves special credit for the good work you have done. I am proud of the good showing we have for Newberry in o-r final report to Washington." Secretary McAdoo sends this greet - ; insr to the woman's committee: "Please accept mv warmest congratulations on the magnificent su:*-! cuss of the third Liberty loan. It a triumph of sound war financing, and .s highly creditable to the intelli- ; gence and patriotism of the American j people. I hone that everv mireh<*sr>r I of bonds will keep them for his own j good and for his country's sake. To I the patriotic men and women of the ! Liberty loan committees, and organizations throughout the country who have served with such extraordinary | usefulness and enthusiasm, too much j praise cannot he given. I wish I could express to each one of them, personally my grateful appreciation but as this is imposible would yot: j kindly send this message from me trail the Liberty loan committees: 'Great are the resources of Americ . but greater are the unconquerable sum ami spirit, oi ner people.'7' Mrs. W. G. McAdoo's letter is a.c follows: "Washington. May IS, 191$. 'Dear Madam Chairman: "I am writing you at this time to express to von the appreciation of the National Wowan's Liberty loan committee for the service that you have rendered in the Liberty loan campaign just closed. Will you not als-f extend the congratulations and a-ppre cianon 01 this committee to th local chairman whom you appointed for the third Liberty loan, and who have so faihfrllv carried out the part assigned to them? "The members of the national committee want you to know that we realize the many sacrifices which women m^ve in devoting their time and energy to the Liberty loan cami miens, arir] that f""- * J - jlums apprecate the splendid spirit in which these sacrifices are made. That the faithful and untiring efforts of the mem- j bers of this nation-wide organization have borne fruit a thousand-fold is evidenced by the returns received from our state chairman. "The reports of the amouiTt of bonds sold by the women in the various states are not complete, but! such figures as are available at this time show the results of the women's work in the third Liberty loan trt llOTTr. 1 ~ na*c cAceeuea me mgnest expectations of our state and federal reserve from our state chairmen. "In this campaign, as in the two preceeding ones, tthe fact has again been brought out that the greatest glory of the women's work lies not in the amount of bonds sold, .proportionately high though this is?but in the large numbers of subscriptions secured. While the women's committees throughout the country have; some of the largest individual sub- | scriptions to their credit. th#>v havA! been very largely instrumental in securng the smaller subscriptions?the ones which are hardect to get, but j which mean the most from the stand-1 point of the awakening of a national > spirit. And it is perhaps in this j a wakening of. the people to the necessity of their support of the govern-! ment in this crisis that the value of j Women's T)3rtir>innHnn in i x .|/%?W4VU la luiau^lll^ the war is most clearly demonstrated, j "The results of the last campaign J have more than justified the 'belief of | the treasury department in the ability i of women to stand shoulder to should- i er with men in organizing and con- j ducting the campaigns for the sale of Libc+v bonds,^nd in their ri^ht to i the title, 'Equal Partners.' 'With the personal appreciation of myself and the members of mv entire j committee for your devotion to the ' cause for which we are all striving, | T am, "Yours mcst cordially, (Signed) "Eleanor W. McAdoo, (Mrs. W. G. McAdoo.) Chairman 'National Woman's Liberty Loan Committee." The* end is not yet! One success deserves another. L*: every man, woman and child in 'Newberry county begin, saving for th3 fourth Liberty loan so that when that ram Dai 2m shall havp r-lfi'ser? thprp un'il "be a bond not only in every home bar. in the possession of ^verv member of every family in Xewberry county.

Editor of The Herald and News: Please allow me a brief space tha I- may state to the people of iNo. township the reason why no repor was sent in to the County chairma of the Woman's Committee for th third L'/berty loan. I feel sure hun | dreds of dollars were subscribed, sev | eral that I know of, but they wer not handed to me. Owing to con tinued illness in the family and clos j confinement I could not attend to m duties as chairman. I resigned th position at the beginning of the driv< ; hoping the county chairman woul appoint one more suitable, one wh 1 could always be "on the job." Respectfully, Mrs. C. A. Matthews Newberry, S.
